Total: 57 minutes

Prep: 12 minutes

Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

4 chicken legs (about 5 oz each)
4 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp Italian seasoning
salt and ground black pepper
20 oz. broccoli
20 oz. cherry tomatoes
Garlic butter
4 oz. butter
2 garlic cloves, pressed
salt and ground black pepper, to taste
Serving
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 °F (200 °C).
Toss chicken legs with olive oil and seasoning.
Put the chicken legs, skin side up, in a baking dish together with the tomatoes. Bake 40-45 minutes or until juices run clear and chicken reaches 165 °F (74 °C).
While the chicken is in the oven, cut the broccoli into florets and slice the stem (or use frozen). Boil in lightly salted water for 5 minutes in a saucepan. Drain the water and put on the lid to keep warm.
Mix all the ingredients to the garlic butter in a bowl. Set aside.
Serve the chicken with the broccoli, tomatoes and garlic butter.

Notes

Tips! The dark meat of a chicken leg has more fat and is more satiating than the white meat of chicken breast. Feel free to eat the crispy, delicious chicken skin, too.
